Can confirm, this tutorial still works. I only did the Relay portion of this video and the " premade Client Network Transform" section of the previous video. Everything works as described, except that some things had their names changed. It was only in the namespaces and some classes, I think: using System.Threading.Tasks; using Unity.Netcode; using Unity.Netcode.Transports.UTP; using Unity.Services.Core; using Unity.Services.Authentication; using Unity.Services.Relay; instead of Allocation, it was Unity.Services.Relay.Models.Allocation instead of JoinAllocation it was Unity.Services.Relay.Models.JoinAllocation and I think thats it

Fantastic and very helpful video. Thanks a bunch.

A more advanced tutorial of the featured lobby with pagination would be amazing bro... And ty for your videos, love them :)

Great tutorial/showcase

I would love to see a few extra videos explaining more about the technical details of these services: - How their billing logic works for each service, what those names and numbers mean (writes, read, compute time, invocations, etc) and how we should evaluate them when developing. - Bad practices and mistakes to avoid that could result in inflating those numbers. - Good practices that would improve the efficiency of those numbers (compressing files, limiting request, etc). - Ways to prevent players from abusing the service (like prevent the player from spamming buttons that result in unnecessary calls to the API).

If we're talking about lobby and relay, Unity actually has pretty strict rate limits on each call which forces you to implement good error handling (you'll encounter basically all of them while in development). If we're talking about netcode, you're in luck as a video on network performance is planned. I'll go over some benchmarks and highlight some gotchas along the way.

@WagnerGFX

Жыл бұрын

In this case, I meant for the whole Unity Gaming Services. But a network performance video would probably explain most those points. I'll be looking forward to that (and silently waiting for the quaternion one too 👀). Here are a few suggestions to show on that video: 1) Before implementing the UGS API and during development: Use the [Unity Profiling Core API] to create a custom profiler and track events and data size that are expected to be sent through the cloud. This can help generate some data to predict how much a project would consume in either calling the cloud API or in network bandwidth usage, but without actually sending anything. 2) After implementing and during test phases: Use Analytics to send the total used data/calls to the UGS API at the end of each play session or on player logout. This could help predict costs and check edge cases where a play session would consume the API more than necessary. With this devs could track their API usage, predict issues before deployment and avoid being an example in this video from Fireship. 😅 kzread.info/dash/bejne/gGqgu8WRmseaoMo.html

Thanks a ton for the video - learned a great deal!! I did struggle with one issue so maybe this will help someone else out. When you set up your account on UGS I had set the maximum player amount to 2. The default in Tarodev's sample project is set to 5. This will fail validation and just return a very vague error message. After hours of testing I finally figured it out so you may want to validate the dropdown within a set range.

Would love to see a tutorial on how to do P2P multiplayer. Even if it involves having the host of the game portforward. It'd just be nice to have a free alternative that will also work indefinetly rather than tying it to a service that might one day be shut down.

Hi Taro, firstly thanks for such a good explanation and guid throw all the topic, was very clear and usefull!! One question that comes to my mind is that if we use a dedicated server like some other comment mentioned (i.e. server on any cloud) relay should be necessary aswell? or is it possible to just drop the lobby part to make the rooms for each group of players? (after taking a deep look it seems like they both work together? (relay and lobby) thanks!

Thank you

FINALLY!

Mobile game you say, i say this is amazing for all platforms that can use it. It will do wonders for creating like 2-4 player coop with P2P, rather than adding all sorts of multiplayer assets, steam lobbys and additional code. I'm so happy unity is moving this way for multiplayer support in general.

Hey my man. Keep the lobby open for the duration of the game (keep pinging it) and once the menu scene is loaded, check for an active lobby and just send them to the lobby scene as if they clicked a button to join. The lobby is just a group of people and not really related to the netcode game... it becomes easier when you think of it like that.

Hi @Tarodev, amazing vid! Does the relay service work online? or just locally?

Actually, I didn't know they charge you for using the service. By using the relay, you get the "First 50 CCU (concurrent connected users) for free / month", then they charge $0.16 per additional CCU. Unless I'm getting this wrong, I think it'd been nice mentioning that before people get too hyped.

Good video! Got a question how you solve the issue with ParrelSync library not getting recognized with Visual Studio Code. I'm looking in the web, and looks people haven't got an issue with it.

This is so awesome... Your simplematchmaking script is exactly what I need! The only thing I'm not sure about, is how to deal with communication that would come from the server, since we got no access to the server itself... I would like the server to send level data to the clients, inform both clients who won this round, send the new map data and eventually telling my api to add rewards for the match to the accounts... How would I do that using your approach?

Hello Taro, thank you so much for the tutorial! I tried out the project in the description but it seems that when you move a character it's not synchronized even though the player prefabs have the client network transform component. Is this intentional or am I having a problem?

For example, in a scenario that max player number is five, and 15 players want to play. Will three hosts at the same time be ok?

@@peterkossits4794 Thanks for this. The code on the GitHub is overcomplicated garbage with 90 layers of abstraction and "design pattern" bs for no reason (modern programming for ya).

My main problem with ParrelSync when I tried it was that whatever window I didn't have selected was "lagging behind". As in, I'm sending a players input every FixedUpdate frame and on the server they are added to a buffer and then consumed one per FixdedUpdate frame. So there SHOULD be a 1:1 ratio for input buffer size both on server and client but if I have the Client window selected, the server window buffer increases steadily and vice versa. It's like the non-selected Unity instance aren't getting enough computer resources to keep up. Very strange.

quick one for you- is the lobby in the same scene as the actual game, or is the scene with the game loaded from the lobby? im struggling to figure out what comes after the lobby and relay are set up. How does the game itself get started??
